Section 4.9.5.2 says: 

   If only N (S,G,rpt) Prune entries fit into a maximum-sized Join/Prune
   message, but the router has more than N (S,G,rpt) Prunes to add, then
   the router MUST choose to include the first N (numerically smallest
   in network byte order) IP addresses.

Notes:

Only N (S,G,rpt) Prune entries are transmitted in the biggest Join/Prune message, what about the remaining (S,G,rpt) entries? Are they ignored? Is a second message generated? This should be made clear.
